At USA Cheer Camp. Thanks right, Cheer Camp. I never once dropped the Spirit Stick and I still remember key moves from that dance to this very day.

My cousin and I used to rewind Beat It endlessly . . . it's really sad how things ended up for MJ. It's really unbelievable. Thanks for sharing that terrific memory.

For an extra twist, I'm going to use Tomato Herb (V8 Soup) instead of the 23 ounces of tomato juice <a href="http://www.campbellsv8soup.com/TomatoHerb.aspx" target="_blank">http://www.campbellsv8soup.com/TomatoHerb.aspx</a> I can't wait to try this!

My brother is the one who told me about the contest and found my name on the winning list. Did I take him to the concert with me (I had won two tickets). Mmmm, NO. Is he still bitter, lo these many years later? YES. Maybe if I make him this gazpacho he will finally forgive me!

On the way home, my car was so loud that turning on the radio seemed like a moot point. I loved Michael Jackson. When I was 13, our family was in Vegas with another family. My friends dad was a big gambler and basically, got what ever he wanted. The Jackson 5 were playing at we got front row seats. I sang along to every song and Jackie, Mikes older brother knew it. At the end of the show, he picked me up on stage and asked me to dance with he and Michael. Then the curtain closed and I was back stage with them. I am surprised I didn't pee in my pants. Your blog is beautiful. So is your writing. Enjoy the day!

On a lighter note, that gazpacho looks delicious! I was thinking to trying Ina's recipe but was afraid the soup would taste too raw... if that makes sense? I was thinking of roasting tomatoes before chilling them with the rest of the ingredient. If you say it was delicious though, I should really give it a try!

Just like you I hope he is remembered for the talented man that he is and not the controversy that he is surrounded with. The gazpacho looks scrumptious. Wow, what a great story.

I didn't realize I had such a warm place in my heart for Michael Jackson! I think it's that I associate his music with a happy time - staying up late to watch for the video for "Beat It" or "Thriller" on Night Tracks, that moon walk - I remember that performance on the Grammys. Great post. I'm surprised by how much his passing has gotten to me. I didn't realize I had such a warm place in my heart for Michael Jackson!
